The idea is to loosen up, improve your hand-eye coordination and become more confident at observing shapes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI’ll also show you how to refine those initial loose marks, use negative shapes to help judge proportion, and gradually develop longer, more fluid lines rather than lots of short, hesitant ones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a lovely warm-up exercise to use before drawing a still life, landscape or portrait, and a great way to begin developing your own individual style of mark-making.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Begin With Billy","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57012158071170,"sku":"pencil-dribbling","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0549\/4587\/4136\/files\/Pencil_Dribbling_Thumb_27a5883d-d9db-4828-bcc0-7a8a3896aced.jpg?v=1793604973","url":"https:\/\/billyshowell.com\/en-eu\/products\/drawing-techniques-4-pencil-dribbling","provider":"Billy Showell School of Art","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
